Overview
CDI & Coding
Amanda Recker, RHIA, CCS, and CCS-P
Clinical documentation improvement professionals and medical coders are both key players in organizational success. It is easy to become protective of the components each group is endorsing, such as coding choices or opinions on documentation. However, each group has a unique and vital role to play in the process of success. Within this presentation, we are going to look at each team’s role and contribution, where collaboration and leaving egos at the door provide the opportunity to reach our highest potential for the good of our organizations and the patients we serve. Together, coding and CDI really is the dream team.
